Summary:
150 Porträtminiaturen aus der Zeit Napoleons I. stehen im Zentrum dieses Bandes. Sie erlauben eine erstaunlich unmittelbare Sicht auf Menschen, die in dieser turbulenten und von Kriegen geprägten Epoche gelebt haben. Die Werke werden ausführlich in Bild und Text vorgestellt. Aufsätze von verschiedenen Experten der Miniaturmalerei runden das Thema ab.Die 150 in diesem Band vorgestellten Bildnisminiaturen aus der Epoche Napoleons I. (zwischen 1795 und 1815) erstaunen durch ihr hohes künstlerisches Niveau und ihr handwerkliches Raffinement. Anders als im theatralisch überhöhten Porträt des Absolutismus sind hier realistisch und modern erscheinende Menschen dargestellt ? eine Galerie von Frauen, Männern und Kindern aus einer politisch bewegten und von Kriegen dominierten Zeit.00The publication focuses on 150 portrait miniatures from the age of Napoleon I. They provide us with an astonishingly direct view of people who lived in this turbulent, war-torn period. The works are presented in detail in image and text. Essays by a number of experts on miniature painting round out the subject.0The 150 portrait miniatures from the age of Napoleon I (between 1795 and 1815) included in this volume surprise the viewer with their high artistic level and their craftsmanship.
